See the Stars by Eleanor Ray will be published on February 5th 2026 by Piatkus . Do you ever feel that life isn't going to plan? When Alice Thorington collapses in the street after a particularly hellish day at work, she must finally admit to herself that her outwardly happy life - steady relationship, well-paid job, beautiful flat in the city - isn't everything she'd hoped it would be. Burnt out by long hours and living a life that doesn't fulfil her dreams, Alice returns home to Yorkshire. Her childhood home brings complicated family dynamics, a rediscovery of her passion for stargazing and two new friends: Berti, a boy who finds it easier to count the stars than interact with people, and Matt, her brother's best friend and Alice's teenage crush. With each of them facing their own struggles, can the stars that meant so much to Alice in her past help them to find their way in the present? Filled with heart and warmth, this uplifting novel...
Jane Eyre is such a great book. What a nice idea, reading it to celebrate the author's birthday. I don't know if you've already read it or even if you would like it, but if you like sort of silly fantasy-mystery books that feature a healthy helping of bookish nerd stuff you might want to try Jasper Fforde's The Eyre Affair.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by. I do like reading books which have been sparked off by others but I haven't read The Eyre Affair yet.
